A bit about Dear Neighbours,
“The Tuff leyley-Link” Link”
Welcome to the April edition of your Tuffley Link. I’m hoping that as you receive this months directory it will be safe to say that it looks like Spring is on it’s way. The clocks have now gone forward, and so it will mean the start to those evenings getting lighter and with that hopefully the weather starting to get a little warmer. Hopefully the weather will be kind with the Easter school holidays falling at the beginning of this month, and we can use the bank holidays to start to get outside a little more and get on with that Spring Cleaning around the house. The Tuffley Link has some great local business’s that can help with your Spring Cleaning, whether its inside or outside your home. Check out our index page on page 18 for a list of property maintenance and handymen that can help around your home, or gardeners and landscapers if you are looking to work on your garden, ready for the Summer months. Al’s Windows on page 11 can not only help clean your windows but also your gutters and conservatories too, getting the exterior of you home ready for Spring. If you are looking for events to fill your diary, St Lawrence church in Barnwood have their Annual Spring Fayre on 16th April see page 8 for more details, there is a football match being held at Tuffley Rovers against Aston Villa Old Stars in May with all funds being raised for the James Hopkins Trust see their advert on the front cover, they’d love your support. If you have a business with potential customers in this area, then let us help you get your offers and promotions out to them - our April offer is on page 2, helping you get your business in front of 1,000’s of homes for just a fraction of the cost. If you require any help with art work for your business, whether it’s for a new logo design, business cards, flyers or a new advert, this month we are launching Link Creative to compliment The Link Directories, see our introductory offer on the opposite page.
